Thank you for coming to Kids Day!

Thanks to everyone that came to our annual Kids Day event for 2019! This is one of our favorite events of the year and we love showing off the station, fire equipment and employees that make our fire department so great! Thanks also to all the vendors and their hard work providing excellent service and fun for the public. Check out our gallery for more photos of this event. We hope to see you all again next year for Kids Day 2020!

fire department expands to include north highline!

After extensive contract negotiations and a vote from two separate fire commissions, the North Highline Fire District has undergone a contractual consolidation into King County Fire District #2. While North Highline Fire District still exists and maintains their own board of fire commissioners, all of their firefighters have been hired by the King County Fire District #2. The new consolidated district will provide streamlined response and chain of command for fire and emergency medical service (EMS) to areas of unincorporated King County, Burien, and Normandy Park.

King County Fire District 2 Employee of the Year recognized!

The KCFD 2 Commissioners and Fire Chief Mike Marrs presented Firefighter Ryan Anderson with the 2018 Employee of the Year award at the February 19th Commissioner’s meeting.

This award is given annually to the employee who displays outstanding performance as determined by their peers. Ironically, the award presentation had to be postponed to the very end of the meeting as District crews, including Anderson, were battling a house fire in the north end of the City as the meeting commenced. Fortunately the fire was contained to only part of the structure, and Anderson was able to get back to quarters and quickly cleanup for the presentation.

Firefighter Anderson was cited for an extreme dedication to physical fitness, including motivating and leading many others toward effective exercise and dietary habits. This issue has become critical in today’s fire service where 50% of line of duty deaths are due to heart attacks. You could say that Firefighter Anderson not only saves lives on the street, but potentially inside the firehouse as well. Congratulations Ryan Anderson, King County Fire District 2 , Employee of the Year!

On April 6th a man collapsed on the sidewalk of the Starbucks on 148th and Ambaum. Thanks to the heroic actions of Natasha Stapp, an employee there, who immediately started CPR as well as quick actions by other members of the public to call 911, Chris Smith was able to fully recover. To honor Chris and Natasha, we recently held special commissioner meeting and presented Natasha with a certificate and our thanks for her willingness to act.

Great Job Natasha, Station 28 B shift and Medic 4!
